Publisher's Synopsis

Sylvia's Experiment: The Story Of An Unrelated Family is a novel written by Margaret Rebecca Piper and published in 1914. The story follows Sylvia, a young woman who is determined to prove that love and kindness can overcome any obstacle. Sylvia is an orphan who has been taken in by a wealthy family. Despite her lack of blood relation to the family, she is treated as one of their own and grows up alongside their children. As she becomes an adult, Sylvia begins to notice the differences in treatment between herself and the biological children of the family. Determined to prove that family is not just about blood, Sylvia sets out to create her own family by adopting a group of unrelated children. She faces many challenges along the way, including societal judgment and financial struggles, but she perseveres in her belief that love and kindness can overcome any obstacle. Through Sylvia's Experiment, Piper explores the themes of family, love, and acceptance. The novel is a heartwarming tale that encourages readers to look beyond blood relations and embrace the power of love and kindness to create a family.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
